AJC Headlines Artportunity Knocks’ Impact on Atlanta’s Youth

We’re thrilled to share some exciting news--Artportunity Knocks has been featured in the Atlanta Journal-Constitution (AJC)! This incredible article showcases the heart of our mission: empowering youth through the arts and community service.

The AJC highlights our journey from humble beginnings—40 students in a two-bedroom apartment—to serving thousands across metro Atlanta through after-school programs, workshops, and camps. Whether it’s teaching music production, esports, or film, we’re helping students like London Brown not just thrive creatively, but academically and socially. Her mom, Lockett Brown, praised our programs for their transformative impact, saying they helped her daughter achieve the highest honors on Georgia’s academic milestones.

Our work extends beyond art. From offering meals out of our own kitchen to delivering food during the pandemic with partners like Lyft, we’ve always believed in addressing the whole child’s needs. This recognition from the AJC affirms that the work we do wouldn’t be possible without the unwavering dedication of our staff, volunteers, and supporters—thank you!
